Hey everyone!

I started week three yesterday, and loving the program. I feel stronger and all-around better about my body. Stats are 5'7 135lbs.. Usually a size small, 27 to 28 in jeans.. My tummy is my problem area for sure.

I'm headed to Maui for the first time at the end of February, and I'm curious what my expectations should be during this time? I don't plan to follow her 1200 cal a day diet, but I'm adding running in twice a week on top of the program... Vegetarian, probably averaging 1500 a day. Working in an office, so sedentary during business hours. I'm also a regular runner, but new to weight training.

Any general insight or tips also welcome... Thanks!

    You seem pretty fit (compared to me when I started) so you'll do great. The program utilizes 3, 5 & 8 lb hand weights. I ended using my 5's most of the time. You'll definitely get stronger! I went from push-ups on knees to military style by the end.

    Yay for Maui. I went there last spring and loved it! I'mi going to Oahu & the Big Island in March.
